I am thinking about wearing make-up on a day-to-day basis and i was wondering if you all had any suggestions. Do you think i could pull of a shocking color like blue or green? Thanks for your help. oh, this is what i look like: http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/sweetiepie4342003/album?.dir=/1664re2&.src=ph&.tok=phGaqwFBzVANw8B7

brighten up ur eyes with some nice light colors . keep ur makeup neutral. i would apply a small amount of bronzer to ur cheekbones, forehead, nose bridge and chin. us a mascara and leave out the liner. when ur doing ur eyeshadow us a light brown or lavender on the lid and brighten it up with a cream on ur brow bone and inner corners of ur eyes. this will brighten up ur general eye area and make u look awake. apply blush( darker pink with a purple or brown tint to it) to the apples of ur cheeks (smiling big while doing this always makes it easier on me lol) u can finish it off by applying a nude gloss, for an everyday look. and u could use adeep mauve lipsick with this gloss over it when going for a more dramatic look. u have nice lips so u should make them stand out.

Yes, blue and green are OK, but maybe not shocking and more light, like mixed with gold or silver to tone it down. If you like to put on 'wow' eye colors, make sure all the rest of ur makeup is toned down. otherwise you look tacky. I personally like the natural look, and I use clinique's almost makeup, its very light and has spf. Dress up the eyes with mascara and liner (optional) and some nuetral, earthy eyeshadows like purples, brick reds, and coppers. I don't apply blush. Finally, use a nice neutral gloss or lipstick for the final touch! I'm sure you will look beautiful!

If you dont usually wear makeup, I would suggest that you get more comfortable with wearing neutrals before you tried to pull off the blues or greens. but i think youcould do it. The key isn't so much the color, but the way you put it on. And I cant stress enough--BLEND!! I like to wear red lipstick, but I have to put blush on the apples of my cheeks for it to look good, otherwise, it pulls at my eyes. so if you like a color, but it doesnt look good, try it, but change another feature of your makeup. It all washes off anyway!

Neither go for browns, golds, etc. Look in CVS for some eyeshadows. Mary Kay has a lipstick color called Downtown Brown that would suit you I think. I don't think you need a whole lot of makeup. A little on your eyes and lips should be sufficient.

Wear something bright, but first get a concealer, because you have dark circles around your eyes and have to cover them up first.

White lilac and purple are in now for your skin tone. Burgandies and plums always look good.
